![]() The pot must be stirred for the ingredients to mix :) Hopefully, all the ingredients agree with each other. Nor do I think we know the players of FC. I do not think he knows the players of AC. But, I have never been on FreeCiv forums and I doubt anyone from the 4 major AC forums have been there, either. He is also trying to sell rcb on the fact that without mods, FreeCiv could handle at least the tech requirements and basic rules. I also think in his posts he is talking directly to rcb. I suppose we'll have to see what the FreeCiv guy says on CFC and see where that goes!Ĭiv Fanatics has always, from my lurking, been considered nuetral ground. Altering the source code of SMAX directly seems to take skill that is not available or a lot more work from less folks that could help. Unless someone else comes along with something better, the FreeCiv offer may be the more realistic choice. I agree with you on "reinventing the wheel". Work is turning out to be pretty good from dev reports. You do know that Kael, the guy behind the Civ 4 Fall from Heaven mod (which is almost commercially good) ended up getting hired by Frogboy to Stardock to fix the Elemental :War of Magic fiasco. As far as you possibly working on it, who knows. Not too much tactics level TBS stuff out there anymore. But, a Windows product would play anything PC providing the system requirements are there. I think the main complaint folks have with those products is it does not play anything except stuff designed for it. :| - End quote - I have a sneaking suspicion that these new Windows 8 phones and tablets are going to put the hurt on iOS and Android (Linux). That's like, probably a year of dev time already saved. Still I'm not one for reinventing the wheel-FreeCiv is like 90% what we'd need as a base, just redo the UI and add more functionality into the areas I mentioned on CFC.
